About Wingspan Labs

A practical studio for tools, workflows, and accessible digital experiences.

How we work

Calm systems before loud promises.

Kevin Hintzman founded Wingspan LLC after years of leading operations, compliance, funding, and workflow improvement across nonprofit, healthcare, public university, and government settings.

His work has centered on making complicated systems easier to see and manage: clarifying roles, improving access and throughput, strengthening documentation, and building routines that help teams execute with less friction.

His grantwriting and funding strategy experience includes government grants and contracts, healthcare, religious organizations, nonprofits, and Child Advocacy Center settings. During his first 12 months working on grants and funding agreements, his work contributed to successful awards and contracts with a combined full-term value of approximately $1.03 million. That figure reflects the full value of multi-year awards and agreements, not funding received within one year.

Experience beyond grantwriting includes Lean continuous improvement, web accessibility, executive healthcare administration, and nonprofit executive leadership.
